> But have you thought about how you’re contributing to air pollution inside of where you live by using seemingly innocuous products like scented, non-combustible candles?

What is a non-combustible candle? Searching for "flame-free candle" just gives results for fake LED ones. The rest of the article talks about "scented wax melts" are they the same?

I believe this is a strange way to refer to wickless candles, which are used with candle warmers.

Probably, those wick-only stuff that people put one end in an oil, and let it evaporate though the body.

Yeah, I stopped going to houses that ran those plug-in diffusers.

The rule is: don't put it into your lungs or onto your skin if you wouldn't put it into your mouth.

Those people are just paying people to poison them, however slowly.

    Most (all?) "essential oil" products, used in diffusers, are edible. I like the peppermint oil as a breath freshener.

      My dumbass Republican family members don't use the "essential oil" ones -- they use whatever cheap corporate bullshit from Glade or whoever.

      It's good to know, however, that non-chemical ones are available. Thanks.
